A method of making a selection of optional enclosures for a mailpiece including required enclosures. The method comprises the steps of assigning to each of the optional enclosures a weight, a cost and a benefit, creating a list of the potential compositions of the mailpiece, the list including a total of 2n combinations of the optional enclosures, where n equals the number of optional enclosures, computing a total weight of the mailpiece for each of the potential compositions, computing a value of the mailpiece for each of the potential compositions, the value being any computable function of the benefit and the cost of each optional enclosure included in each of the potential compositions, and selecting from one of the potential compositions based on the one having the optimal value.
